While the smokers on the set might resent her call for the ban, the director is maha pleased with her dedication.

Sujoyu00a0 says, "She's really into the character. So much so that after a while she started freaking us out.
She started behaving like an expectant mother and wouldn't let anyone smoke in front of her.. and we were like.. huh? Pregnant!? Who? So I think for Balan once she is mentally there, physical bits are baaye haath ka khel."
The director might want to lookout for more clues of obsessing with the character. It might get really scary if she started eating for two, or started feeling morning sickness.
